Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) says that the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations (FSIN) owes them over $28.7 million for “unsupported” or “ineligible” spending in the period between April 1, 2019, to March 31, 2024. The monies are said to be “repayable.” ISC claims that the majority of that amount, $23.2 million, relates to Covid-19 spending during the pandemic, which began in Canada in March 2020 and was officially declared over by the World Health Organization on May 5, 2023.
The FSIN’s leader, Chief Bobby Cameron, at a media briefing held at the FSIN’s headquarters in Saskatoon on March 23, refuted ISC’s charges and said that their organization spent that money “for the proper reasons, the right reasons.” He also threatened possible legal action to defend their position, “once we get the mandate from our chiefs.”
